1. Four days after I refused to seal various documents submitted by Donohue via RedCrest including a copy of the notice of application for leave to appeal against conviction and written case stated, Donohue again submitted essentially the same documents for filing. Once again these documents were rejected for filing. The Deputy Registrar notified Donohue by email of the reasons for this decision at 9:32 am on 17 May 2024. Twenty-one minutes later Donohue applied for a review of the rejection.
2. This rejection was entirely appropriate. To seal the documents would perpetuate the abuse of process identified on several occasions by this Court and the High Court. The application is refused.
